Robbie was born in Bangor, Maine and moved to Toronto at an early age. He joined the Royal Canadian Navy at 18. He worked in the automotive industry for many years, eventually becoming the successfully business owner of RH Cycle in Richmond Hill, until he retired. He had a zest for travel, enjoyed boating, diving, and fishing, eventually became an official snowbird with Nancy, wintering in Lakeland, Florida.
